That's absolutely terrible news. You really have to wonder if this adds new perspective to the incident with the car a few years ago. It was floated early in the life cycle of that story that it could have been a suicide attempt, but it was later denied.

Really sad to hear this.

Don't want to speculate, but it wouldn't be surprising. We are seeing more and more stories like this with retired players.

As far as tragic, unexpected deaths go, this really doesn't seem that shocking. It's gotta be concussion related. Still absolutely heartbreaking; he's one of the first football players I remember watching as a kid.
